AGRICULTURAL AND PASTORAL ASSOCIATION.
to thh xz>rroß or ths fbxss. Sib,—l was sorry to see at the last meeting of the Committee an effort being made to remove the present Show Grounds to some other site; and I feel thankful to, Mesera Peacock and Cunningham that .they took such a determined'stand against the rem&val.. -.'■' .■■-.- - >.
Although I have long sinoe ceased to take any active part in the Association's proceedings, I still watch with interest all that goes on, and I cannot but feel it would be a fatal mistake to attempt to move the Show Ground to any site less central. With the proposed addition of two acres (although I doubt if this is oven neceseary) are-arrangement of the yards and ahede and a grand-stand, I feel certain all the wants of exhibitors and visitors can be fully provided for, and thus avoid running the Association into unknown risks and liabilities. Trusting the removal maybe left to another generation to carry out, I remain Yours, &c, Gxobob Gould.
